You are actually asking for configuration options ?
Haha, no :) I was just answering his question ("come up with a way to
identify windows to not pop up"). When I get annoyed enough by it I'll
either hack it in myself, or finally hack zoom into evilwm to use with
xcompmgr and really be happy.
That's not possible in the new order, where people is actively
trimming
out any word^woption that is redundant and deviates from the norm (the
norm being what someone else like not necessarily what works best).

Shut up and rm that libfoo.a :)
